I woke up to the sound of beating hooves and a smile on my face, I got out of bed and went to the window when I drew back the curtains, I saw my father leading a stamped around the track, he looked up at me and snorted a hello, I waved back at him and quietly watched him from my window. He had a raven black coat with a white star on his head, his wings were raven black too, his feathers were black and the tips of them were white, I watched as he leads the heard to the sky, one by one they flew up after him, when I could no longer see him, I went down to the cafeteria, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, I heard some shouting and went to investigate, only to over hear my father and older brother talking to each other about me and some prophecy? what ever that meant. I decided to ask them about it after breakfast  I was to hungry to confront them about it now. 

I went down to the cafeteria as soon as I walked all eyes where on me, which creeped me out, I went and sat down next to my best friend Sarah, and I asked her 'why is everybody staring at me"?  " because of the prophecy has no one told you?" "no what prophecy?"  " as she was about to answer my father called me over to him', I walked over to him and he told me to follow him to his office I was nervous  but excited at the same time, I took a seat from across him once we had entered his office.  ' oh page how do I explain this to you?' 'just spit it out dad', "look what I am about to tell you is very important and I just want you to know whatever happens I love you" " wow okay dad you are  freaking me out now' " don't worry everything is going to be okay, for I have faith in you.'  Then he told me about the prophecy and my role in it, how I was supposed to with the help of three others bring the four kingdoms together.

 " well what do you think' I think I need to go pack if I have to leave by sundown" I said. His face broke into a grin. " don't worry dad you can count on me" after that I went and packed. I was in the middle of packing when, there was a knock at the door my father came in with a spear as tall as me. ' I have a gift fore you ' " what's it for " " so you have protection on your journey,' ' why, if I need to I can just shift and fly away" " actually it would be better if you didn't, you see there are hunters out there, and if they found out that you where a Pegasus, they would hurt you very badly, so we have to keep it a secret okay?" ' yeah okay I understand"   ' good, let's go do some training so you can catch up on your swords men skills' " yes sir" I saluted him and we both broke out in laughter. After hours of training I went and got my bag making sure that I had everything and was ready for the crazy journey in front of me. Before I knew it I was standing in front of the ivy over-grown gate, listing to it groan and squeak open.  I stepped outside and began my journey with the shouts of my friends, family and herd mates behind me as I took one step after the other.
